Requesting CHIRP Programming data for Repeater Programming


Question

Posted
Thank you for approving my several requests from Delta1, SACSHARP, SAC625 repeaters - I think I am missing some of the programming information needed to program the radios for the repeaters, as well as other channels.  I purchased the Tidradio programming cable, and can now use the TidRadio programming site, as well as CHIRP, which seems to work better with the cable.
 
For the repeaters, and Using CHIRP as a guide, can you  please provide the following information for programming my radio?
 
 Tone Mode (Tone / TSQL / DTCS / Cross)
Tone (Need Frequency)
Tone Squelch (Need Frequency)
DCTS  (Need DTCS Number)
RX DCTS  (Need DTCS Number)
DTCS Polarity (NN / NR / RN / RR)
Cross Mode (Tone-Tone / DTCS-> / ->DTCS / Tine->DTCS / DTCS->Tone / ->Tone / DTCS->DTCS)
Duplex (- / + / split / off)
Offset (Need Offset Value and + or -)
 
I appreciate all the help you can provide
 
Thank you,
WSCU756  Dave

Some of this information should have been provided by the repeater owner when your access request was approved. The rest is in Chirp documentation. Chirp is mostly pretty straightforward, but can get more complicated than I am qualified to explain. You should refer to Chirp documentation for that. 
https://chirpmyradio.com/projects/chirp/wiki/MemoryEditorColumns

What I can tell you is that when I was given repeater access recently, the owner said something like "Welcome, the PL is 131.8" (this is just made up.) So, the PL is  called T-CTCSS in my radios, and Tone in Chirp. The only extra data I had to put into Chirp for this repeater was: Tone Mode = Tone, Tone = 131.8, Duplex = +, Offset = 5.000000

One extra thing though. I've never needed this, so not tested, but the Chirp documentation says that if there is also a receive tone and it's the same tone, then the Tone Mode column changes to TSQL instead of Tone.

But if you leave it in Tone mode instead of TSQL, it doesn’t matter what the receive tone is.
